Understanding IE Diversity, Inclusion and Belonging (DIB)
Registration
Details
Diversity is a journey and, like any journey, it requires careful navigation. This interactive session will provide a holistic view of diversity at IE, fostering a better understanding of the relationships between groups, individuals, and the organization.
This session is designed to enhance understanding of the various forms of diversity present in our community, including demographic diversity—such as gender, race, or sexual orientation—as well as experiential and cognitive diversity that our students bring.
We will review the IE Diversity Strategy, which seeks to create an equal playing field for all members and explore how to foster a culture of belonging by uniting experiences and ideas to build an integrated and sustainable community. Finally, we will examine IE's ethics and protocols to ensure the prevention of improper behavior by any member of our community.
